Noticing the deadline was only five days away, Hischke quickly mentioned it to his wife, Danae, to gauge her interest about a potential submission on behalf of their non-profit organization, Living Loud Inc., which they founded following the passing of their son, Jordan, in June 2012.
While new to the process, Danae and Alan were thrilled when they received word that Living Loud would be one of 316 groups awarded a total of $800,000 from the Green Bay Packers Foundation, which was founded in 1986 by Judge Robert J. Parins.
“When (Alan) told me that, I was like, well I want to try it,” Danae said.
